Comments for Pileated Woodpecker in Cottage Grove, MN

Your right Brook, the kids today missed out on the old Woody The Woodpecker cartoons!

Also not any kids get to see a Pileated Woodpecker which is a sight to behold.

Woody returned to our feeder a week ago from this past Saturday and I hope he will return again. What a joy he is to watch with that red crest on his head!!

I have purchased a specially designed suet feeder for him which hangs from my maple tree which has a longer oblong board below for him to prop his tail on.

He has been on it once so I am hopeful he will be back for us to feast our eyes on!!

John, thank you for sharing and particularly the comment about it looking like the "original" Woody. I don't know if kids now days can even connect the cartoon characters to the real birds because they look so generic.
